Corrected Weight Functions for Stellar Oscillation Eigenfrequencies

Abstract

Kawaler et al. (1985) present a variational expression for the eigenfrequencies associated with stellar oscillations. We highlight and correct a typographical error in the weight functions appearing in these expressions, and validate the correction numerically.
